This is a fantastic run by Zdarsky and this volume feels like such a great culmination of everything Matt has gone through. Those scenes with Spidey are amazing.

Peter Parker just needed a hug and a snickers bar apparently. God I love Tony, he really did the best he could but he could never beat a hot woman. Elektra, you’re so hot wtf. Matthew, you’re so stupid <3. Rip your boyfriend Foggy, he’s stupid

Weird precedents set by previous legal cases in the superhero world are oddly my jam. You go, Foggy.

The first misstep in Zdarsky's run is a big one.
The first issue in the collection continues the excellent storyline from the previous volumes but there is a wild divergence in the annual, which appears next.
I've read almost every issue since the Kevin Smith/Joe Quesada run in the 90s, and enjoyed almost all of them. The exception is that I lost interest very quickly during Charles Soule's run a few years ago. So when the annual introduced a character alleged to be Matt Murdock's twin brother I thought, This Is Awful, This Must Be Soule's Doing, and it was. Zdarsky's use of the character soured me on the whole Matt Goes Back To Jail storyline. There had to be a better way to progress the story. Issue #24, where much of the Mike Murdoch turn takes place is also an issue with a fill-in artist and it is vastly inferior to [a:Marco Checchetto|2994619|Marco Checchetto|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1483324825p2/2994619.jpg]'s work.
I am excited by the reveal at the end of the volume. In fact, the final issue is a nice return to the quality of previous volumes, but the middle of this volume is, compared to the rest of Zdarsky's run, a bitter disappointment.

Zdarsky's run continues as the ramifications of Matt's actions are felt here as he stands trial for murder. The Kingpin is still be used in interesting ways. Matt is constantly struggling with what he should do and he doesn't always include his loved ones in his decisions. Here, he thinks he has everything planned out but, as is his life, things escalate. The art again is brilliant, mostly by Marco Checcetto. I love his stuff. Overall, another very good read with a handful of twists that all for.

Daredevil, man, you gotta wake up. Your shit’s gone topsy-turvy.

The trial of Daredevil felt like a means to an end, to push the story from one place to the next following the big climactic fight from the last set of issues. Things settle down a bit as Matt toils with whether or not he should give himself up and send himself to jail over the man he accidentally killed earlier in the series. You kind of know the outcome is Daredevil behind bars, because that's too good of a visual and too interesting a situation not to explore, making this 4 or 5 issues of wheel-spinning, but the team behind this book is talented enough to make that entertaining, as we set up for the next story.
